So this is our new website, and here is the first post I’m making on it. I figured Teddy “Eyeballs” Margo would be a good way to kick it off, so enjoy a (re)uploaded photo. More to come, now that the website’s done and I start fishing more in January these reports will be back…
Read MoreSteve Jacobs, a good friend of mine, provided these pictures to me and I figured I’d share them here: That’s it for now. n
Read MoreEarlier this week, I fished with John O’Hearn and Jim Linville, my father. If you keep up with these reports, it’s been a long while since he’s made the journey south to fish in the Keys. Needless to say, I was happy to be in the company of my dad and spend a few days…

Read MoreTwo days ago I went fishing with Chris Trosset. Our target was blackfin tuna, and we found them in good numbers. After a longer-than-average search for bait, we arrived at the spot an hour before sunset and were in tuna the entire time. I hooked three on fly, losing every one to the sharks. Chris…
Read MoreWe left off with the capturing of two permit on the beginning of the sixth day. Here’s what happened next: Michael had caught the permit while I was tarpon fishing, and since we were also in the presence of some small bonefish we decided to catch two in case we could get a slam. Michael…
Read MoreAfter our two permit day in in Punta Gorda, we woke up on our second to rain and cloud cover. We returned to, and spent the balance of our day in, the inside spot that had given us some great shots and Michael’s second permit the day before. The water was shallow, and we decided…
